CNN is reporting that Yasser Arafat's Palestinian Authority is continuing to implode in the face of Israel's wall. Now, the PA's Prime Minister - hand-picked by Arafat - has resigned, but the long-time Palestinian leader refuses to accept it.
It seems as the Wall continues to prevent further steps in the Intifada, the Palestinians are forced to turn from pursuing terrorism and face the fact of their own corrupt and ineffective governance. And the more they look within, the less satisfied they are with Mr. Arafat. For years, he has been honored as the face of resistance, but with no more real chance to resist he is revealed for what he is: a self-serving political hack with no moral center. Surprise, surprise.
